I've been wanting to try this recipe for days unfortunately the weather here has not been in my favor.It would be nice if you can use Jaffa oranges ( also known as shamouti or khalili in the Middle East) but if they are not available just use any you have on hand.This recipe is perfect as a simple, light dessert after a heavy meal and requires minimal preparation.

1. Using a paring knife, slice of the top and bottom of the oranges, then peel.Then slice each orange into equal slices (about 1/4"thick).2. Place the orange slices on a nice serving platter and drizzle rosewater over them.Scatter the pistachios and raspberries(if using) over the orange slices ,then garnish with the mint leaves.Serve immediately.

About Me

I've always had a love of food and cookery especially Middle Eastern and Arabic Gulf food.I started studying nutrition but chemistry was never my thing so now I'm in the process of becoming a personal chef.I just love learning all there is to know about food and its culture whether trying out new recipes,experimenting with unusual ingredients,or trying a new twist on a classic recipe.I think exploring different foods should be fun which is why I have started this blog to share my love of arabic/middle eastern food with you.
